KWAP eyes ANZ stake in AMMB


Wan Kamaruzaman: ‘The size of the (ANZ) stake in the combined RHB-AMMB banking group fits our investment appetite.’

KUALA LUMPUR: The Retirement Fund Inc (KWAP) is keen on purchasing Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd’s (ANZ) stake after the proposed merger between RHB Bank Bhd and AMMB Holdings Bhd.

However, KWAP is prepared to increase its stake in the merged entity up to 10%, something that the fund would be able to undertake without the need for Bank Negara’s approval.
